She died with his name on her lips and his hands around her throat. The evidence said she killed her own sister. The pack believed it. Her mate, Alpha Kael Blackwood, didn't just believe it—he sentenced her himself. The rejection burned through her bond like fire, but the silver chains? Those were cold. The execution was quiet. No witnesses. No one came to save her. When Elena opens her eyes, she's standing in a white dress. It's her wedding day. The same one where she first promised herself to a man who would eventually destroy her. The same sister who would betray her is adjusting her veil with smiling eyes. The same Alpha who will one day kill her is waiting at the altar. This time, she doesn't run. She doesn't cry. She smiles back and says I do. Because revenge tastes better when it's served cold—and Elena has learned to be very, very patient. She'll play the devoted Luna. She'll let her enemies think they've won. And when they least expect it, she'll take everything they built on her bones. What she doesn't know is that somewhere in the world, four powerful Alpha brothers have been searching for their lost sister for twenty years. What she doesn't know is that when they find her, the woman who was once the weakest Luna in Shadowfang will become the most untouchable queen the werewolf world has ever seen. And Alpha Kael Blackwood? He'll spend the rest of his life begging for a second chance he will never, ever receive.

She handed him her blood, sweat, and years. He handed her divorce papers. Five years married to Derek Vance, and Sloane Hayes has built his company from the shadows — writing every contract, smoothing every deal, while he took the credit and gave his heart to his manager’s daughter. The night she catches them in her own bed, Sloane doesn’t scream. She signs. She leaves. She disappears into the city with nothing but a broken spirit and a single job interview. The job? Personal assistant to Julian Farrow — the most feared CEO in the city. The same man who makes Derek tremble. The same man who looks at Sloane like he’s been searching for her his whole life. Julian doesn’t just give her a second chance. He gives her armor. A penthouse. A wardrobe. A spotlight. And one rule: Let me handle him. But Julian has secrets. He whispers a childhood nickname in his sleep — one no one in this city should know. And when Derek comes crawling back, begging on his knees, Julian’s smile turns cold. “You didn’t want her,” he says. “So I took her. Fair and square.” Only Sloane isn’t a trophy. And when the truth about her past — and Julian’s — finally breaks free, she’ll have to decide: Is this love, or just a better cage?

But this marriage of convenience will be anything but convenient. *** "And you smell good," I interrupted, words tumbling out before I could stop them. "Really good. Like winter but not the terrifying kind. The beautiful kind. With snow and—" I scrunched my nose, grasping for the description. "Those delicate frost patterns that appear on glass." Mikhail produced a sound deep in his chest that could've been a growl or a chuckle or something caught between. "Why are there two staircases?" I blurted suddenly, fixating on the duplicated grand stairway looming before us. "Is this intentional? Seems ridiculously excessive." "There's only one staircase, moya." "Are you certain? Because I'm definitely seeing two. Perhaps you require vision correction. Do lycans need glasses? That would be hilarious. Tiny spectacles perched on a massive terrifying wolf—" "Selene." His voice emerged strained, taut in a manner that penetrated even through my fog. "You need to stop talking." I peered up at him, hurt piercing through the pleasant haze. "Why? Am I irritating you? I'm sorry. I'll stay quiet." "No." The word escaped sharp, nearly anguished. "You're not irritating me. You're—" He severed the sentence, jaw clenching so viciously I witnessed the muscle twitch. "Just... rest." But I didn't want rest. I wanted to comprehend why his expression appeared like that—all rigid and ravenous and something else I couldn't identify. "Are you alright?" I asked, raising my hand toward his jaw. He intercepted my wrist before contact, his hold gentle yet unyielding. "Don't." "Why not?" "Because I'm barely maintaining control as it is, and if you touch me right now—" He halted abruptly, eyes compressing shut momentarily. "Just don't." That should've frightened me. The ferocity in his tone, the way his restraint appeared to unravel at the seams. But intoxicated-me simply smiled, inexplicably pleased. Then I caught the way his gaze dropped. Just for a fraction of a heartbeat. To my mouth. Heat bloomed through my chest, spreading like wildfire. "You want to kiss me," I breathed, the revelation making me giddy. His eyes snapped back to mine, glacial blue turned predatory. "Kissing," he said slowly, voice dropping an octave, "doesn't even begin to scratch the surface of what I want to do to you." The air left my lungs. His grip on my wrist shifted, thumb finding my pulse point. Pressing there. Feeling the frantic rhythm he'd caused. "Kissing is gentle," he continued, leaning in just enough that his breath ghosted across my lips. Close enough to take. Close enough to claim. But he didn't. "Kissing is sweet. What I want?" His eyes dragged down my face, my throat, lower then back up with deliberate slowness. "There's nothing gentle about it."

In her past life, Jessie Sterling moved abroad for Julian Grant, only to have him break his promise and stand her up late at night for another woman on her birthday. Reborn into this life, Jessie Sterling personally severed her past adoration and affection, and instead entered a marriage of convenience with Victor Morgan, the heir to a century-old prestigious family in Aethelburg, a match approved by her family. She had originally thought it would just be a marriage for mutual benefit, and that they would treat each other with polite respect after the wedding. People in their social circle were not very optimistic about this newlywed couple with vastly different personalities. Until one day, some friends paid a late-night visit. By the huge floor-to-ceiling windows of the Four Joys Courtyard, a group of people saw the man who dominated the business world by day having his knee stepped on. He held a bottle of cat-eye nail polish and was currently bowing his head, diligently painting the toenails of the foot resting on his knee. "Is this okay?" With a coquettish air, Jessie Sterling glanced down, her chin slightly raised like a spirited little peacock, "Well, it's passable, I suppose. But I think it could use another coat?" Victor Morgan was almost driven to laugh in exasperation by her words.

Before Jessie Sterling could react, in the next moment, the man had already leaned in and captured the red lips before him that had been tempting him for so long. "Mrs. Morgan, don't you think this... is what really needs another coat of color?" The group of people who had just walked through the courtyard entrance froze on the spot. How the hell could this be called... treating each other with polite respect?
